Minnesota Vikings at Baltimore Ravens: Inactive Lists For Both Teams

We're a little less than an hour and a half away from kickoff from M&T Bank Stadium, ladies and gentlemen. Both the Minnesota Vikings and the Baltimore Ravens have released their inactive lists for today's game. Let's take a look at who will be sitting this one out, starting with the visiting team.

Minnesota Vikings

DT Chase Baker
G Jeff Baca
QB Christian Ponder
OT Mike Remmers
CB Josh Robinson
TE Kyle Rudolph
WR Rodney Smith

Basically no surprises on the Vikings' list of inactives. Josh Freeman is active today because Ponder is not.

And now for our hosts.

Baltimore Ravens

S Omar Brown
TE Dallas Clark
DE Elvis Dumervil
C Ryan Jensen
WR Deonte Thompson
S Brynden Trawick
DT Brandon Williams

The most interesting one of note for Baltimore is that tight end Dennis Pitta, who suffered a serious hip injury during the pre-season this year, has been activated for today's game. Dumervil, who was tabbed by Ravens' coach John Harbaugh as a game-time decision, will sit this one out.

And there you have your full list of everyone that will be watching today's game in street clothes, ladies and gentlemen. Your Open Thread for the first quarter of action should be popping up at pretty much any moment now.
